OPEN LETTER TO RATE-
PAYERS OF TUCKERSMITH
The hospital board of Scott Mem-
orial hospital has received the report
of the auditors Brock, Davis and
Dunn. -Your hospital operated at ` an
estimated loss of $3700 for this year..
This has been due to higher costs and,
lack of staff and hospital help.
The ratepayers of the surrounding
municipalities are being asked to
approve a. grant to cover their share,
of the operating cost defieit, •This
amount is based on the number of
patient days of the residents. Tucker
'smith's portion is $750, which means
$1.75 to each individual taxpayer.
In the event Tuckersmith should not
give the grant, residents of Tucker -
smith will be charged - an extra per
diem amount to offset the loss of the
grant. This -means you will pay $1
per day unless the grant is approved
by Tuckersmith,
The hospital board is doing the
best they can to meet the needs of
this community. There is an iminedi•
ate need for a larger, better equipped
hospital and work is progressing
satisfactorily on a new wing at the
present time.
We trust this information will be
of some value to you.

M SCRAPBOOK
The other day I had some time to
spare,
I scanned my Scrapbook: no oiie else
was there.
One page would start a tear, the next'
a" smile,
Yes, now I'm glad- I spent that little
while,
The Scrapbook cover's torn, the
corner's curled,
We might say that about this modern'
world,
But inside there is not one jarring
note,
Only the gems of thought that good
men wrote,
The Church I'vegiven an honored
place in there,
Sermons and songs, with here and
there a prayer.
Gold could not buy it, every leaf is
mine—
It breathes to me of memories divine.
Recorded in my Scrapbook are the
names
Of comrades I remember, playing
games.
Happy and hopeful, all eager to win,
Good luck, here's our hand, we'll meet
you again.
Those curling friends decked out with
broom and bonnet,
The curling stone with Seaforth
printed on it,
The skip shouts: Don't be short,
they're lying shot;
Maybe we'll take it out, and maybe
not.
The bowlers too present a broken
line
So different from the days of "Auld
Lang Syne";
Pd like -to put down names, it wouldn't
do,
There are so many, I might leave out
you.
Fishing, the sport of kids, the sport
of kings,
My scrapbook tells me lots of funny
things,
We used to catch them with a crooked
